Yes. I have achieved jobdom.
It went down thusly. I was working the summer feeding program today, and the lady called me from Rainbow. She told me that they were very impressed with me at the interview, and wanted to hire me. They were impressed with me professionally and knew that I would do a great job, she said.
The funny part?
Remember how I said that I would rely on my personality to get the job for me, as a joke? Nope, that worked. For real. She said that they weighed personality very heavily in the interview process, and that I seemed like I would fit in very well with them. She actually told me that they had intervewed four more people after me, but kept looking at each other after they left and saying, "Tim was so much of a cooler guy."
Can you guess how awesome that made me feel?
Yeah...
So! The perks?
*Basic graphic designer starting salary, no billions of bucks floating out of the sky, but that's cool, I am making more money than I have ever in my life.
*401k
*Extremely good benefits and insurance
*Paid vacation that accumulates
*My very own office, and

Ready, Daniel?

*A brand new G5 Mac to work on. They just took it out of the box for me yesterday.

Bwaa haa haaaaaa!
I smiled for the rest of the day. I'm still smiling!
So now I start training Monday to get up to speed on everything that's happening at the job, they're giving me some heavy duty InDesign training, (On my new Mac! With it's new programs!) and I will be the sole printing coordinator, and one of the graphic designers. That means that not only will I design my little heart out, but I will be the only guy having printers court me and in charge of the printing going on. Ooooh the experience-gaining bliss!
Basic message of the night? I'm a happy dude.
Oh, and I love Kendra Coggins. I wouldn't have a fart's chance on a windy day of getting a job like this if she hadn't swept into our lives.
Here's raising a glass to Kendra, all.
Heh, Kendra and my dominating personality.
